Abstract

1,009,766. Generators operating by electromagnetic interaction with fluids. WESTING- HOUSE ELECTRIC CORPORATION. June 10, 1963 [July 7, 1962], No. 23071/63. Heading H2A. A magnetohydrodynamic generator comprises an outer cylindrical electrode 2 and an inner solid electrode 4 together forming an annular duct 8 into which an ionized gas is introduced at 10 so that it flows in a helical path in the presence of an axial magnetic field produced by winding 6 to generate a voltage between the electrodes. The generator may be modified by including stationary nozzle blades within the duct for accelerating the gas stream.
